    Samsung Deciding Between Two Tempting Designs For Galaxy Note 6

    Posted on by

    By Ewan Spence

    The online excitement around this year’s release of Samsung’s newest phablet device – the presumptively titled Galaxy Note 6 – continues to build. Reports now suggest that Samsung is working on two form factors for the redesigned phablet which is expected to be announced in late August.

    Dutch site GSMHelpDesk writes that the South Korean company is currently testing two variants of the upcoming Galaxy Note 6 phablet, with the key difference being the construction of the screen. Just as the current Galaxy S7 family sports the flat-screened Galaxy S7 and the curved screen S7 Edge, so the Note 6 devices under testing are the flat-screened and curved edge variant.

    The question is whether Samsung will focus on a single design for the Note 6, or push both devices out to the public”]The question is whether Samsung will focus on a single design for the Note 6, or push both devices out to the public.

    Music great Prince dies at 57

    Posted on by

    by Creative Media Times

    Prince, one of the bestselling pop artists of all time, died Thursday morning in his home recording studio in Chanhassen, Minn., according to his publicist.

    “It is with profound sadness that I am confirming that the legendary, iconic performer, Prince Rogers Nelson, has died at his Paisley Park residence this morning at the age of 57,” his publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, said in a statement. “There are no further details as to the cause of death at this time.”

    Police and EMTs responded to a 911 call at his Paisley Park studio Thursday. Sheriffs in Chanhassen, Minnesota, confirmed that there was one fatality.

    Prince was briefly hospitalized last week for what representatives at the time said was a flu.

    Born June 7, 1958, Prince Rogers Nelson, was one of the most successful and prolific performers of all time. Over his career, Prince sold more than 100 million albums, and won seven Grammy Awards. He also had success as a songwriter for other musicians, writing hits like “Nothing Compares 2 U” for Sinead O’Connor, “Manic Monday” for The Bangles, and “I Feel For You,” for Chaka Khan.

    Sources: The Upgraded PlayStation 4 is Codenamed NEO, Contains Upgraded CPU, GPU, RAM

    Posted on by

    by Austin Walker

    Though the NEO will offer greater visual fidelity than the original PS4, Sony is taking measures not to split their user base in two.

    Earlier this year, rumors began to fly that Sony would release an upgraded version of the PlayStation 4, a console often called the PS4.5 or the PS4K by fans and press. Today, multiple sources have confirmed for us details of the project, which is internally referred to as the NEO. No price was provided, but previous reports indicate that the NEO would sell at $399. At time of publishing, Sony has not returned our request for comment, but we will update this story if the company responds.

    The NEO will feature a higher clock speed than the original PS4, an improved GPU, and higher bandwidth on the memory. The documents we’ve received note that the HDD in the NEO is the same as that in the original PlayStation 4, but it’s not clear if that means in terms of capacity or connection speed. Starting in October, every PS4 game is required to ship with both a “Base Mode” which will run on the currently available PS4 and a “NEO Mode” for use on the new console.

    It hasn’t even been a year, and there’s already an improved Samsung Galaxy A9

    Posted on by

    By Williams Pelegrin

    Announced last December, the Samsung Galaxy A9 represented the company’s latest effort to disguise a mid-range smartphone in high-end construction. Following the lead of Chinese smartphone makers Xiaomi and Meizu, however, Samsung opted to create a Pro version of its jumbo-sized Galaxy A smartphone, which brings us to the Galaxy A9 Pro, reports GSM Arena.

    Revealed for China, the Galaxy A9 Pro doesn’t do anything dramatic to differentiate itself from the original, offering slight bumps in RAM, built-in storage, camera resolution, and battery. More specifically, the Galaxy A9 Pro runs on 4GB of RAM, up from the 3GB found in the original, while featuring 32GB of storage, twice the storage of the original. In addition, the Galaxy A9 Pro features an 8-megapixel camera on the front and a 16MP camera around back, nice bumps from the 5MP and 13MP rear- and front-facing shooters, respectively, found in the original. Finally, the Pro version of the Galaxy A9 includes a whopping 5,000mAh battery, up from the 4,000mAh battery found in the Galaxy A9.

    Young Han Solo Will Probably Be Played By One Of These 4 Actors

    Posted on by

    By Dirk Libbey

    And then there were four. When we first heard about the casting search for the young version of Han Solo for the character’s upcoming standalone Star Wars film, it sounded like every living human between 20 and 35 was being considered. Then we heard the shortlist had been whittled down to about a dozen names. While the decision hasn’t quite been made yet, the shortlist has reportedly become even shorter.

    While the exact size of the shortlist is unclear, according to The Hollywood Reporter, at least four actors were in London last week to test for the role. While three of the young performers have been on our radar previously, one appears to be an entirely new name attached to the intergalactic smuggler. Here’s a look at the top candidates for the Millennium Falcon pilot’s chair.
